Today, even with the Warriors lacking a major general, there are still some players who have not been used by Kerr. For example, Rooney was dropped by Kerr again in the center forward position today, and did not get any playing time today. Rooney has been discarded in recent games. We don't know exactly where Wayne Rooney is in the team, but it's obviously a tough time for him personally.
Kerr has been very hesitant to use Looney in recent years, especially after Jackson Davis Jr. came to the team, and it seems that Looney's playing time is not so solid, and he was the starting center of the Warriors. Even though Looney's overall performance this season has been excellent, he can still protect rebounds well on the court, and his frontcourt rebounding average per game is still among the best in the league. But Jackson Davis Jr.'s position on the inside is a complete overshadow of Rooney.
The Warriors discussed Looney's stay for a long time last offseason, but ultimately chose to keep Looney. It can be seen that the Warriors wanted to give up Looney last offseason, and this year has been abandoned by Kerr for a long time, and we can almost conclude that Looney may not wear the Warriors jersey after this season.
Of course, leaving the Warriors may be the next step for Looney, although he has helped the team win three championships as a Warriors player and has also made great contributions in the playoffs. But there is no banquet in the world, and after Durant and Thompson leave the team one after another, Looney may also leave the team as the next veteran hero.
There are a lot of teams in the league that are very interested in Looney, especially some teams that are weak in rebounding are very keen to get Looney. Looney has two characteristics that other teams have looked for, one is his rebounding ability and the other is his ability to screen. So Looney shouldn't be short of a home after leaving the Warriors, he's still very young and still has a good immediate power. For Looney, if he wants to increase his efficiency in the league, he may have to focus on improving his projection. He was also abandoned by Kerr on the Warriors because of his lack of projection ability and inability to open up space. For Wayne Rooney, he needs to expand his skill set.
